- Maximized videos after that stick around after page navigation (youtube) can now be restored by clicking on the maximize/restore icon.

- Reduce footprint by using minified jquery.
- Update to the latest jquery.important plugin.

in general it works, but in my case I tried to maximize the html5-video player, and when I clicked the extension button, after the opening in full-window the video covered the controls of the player, instead of appearing just in the bottom of the screen as usual and as others similar extensions does. So that mean I cant control the video but I can see the control panel, maybe you need to or remove it completely or save the option to control it ?
